Timothy. or Herds Grass.

This has, next to blue grass and white
clover, been proved best adapted to sur
vive the dry winds of the prairie region.
Though used extensively for the purpose,
it is poor pasture grass. Near the
southern limit of its profitable growth,
which can be approximately placed at
Cairo, H., it grows in tussocks. As the
climate becomes colder aud more favor
able to its growth, it shows a tendency to
cover the ground in a solid turf. Ii
makes an excellent hay for horses, and 10
feed to them brings the highest price in
market. 1t is, however, not so well
adapted to cattle and swine. Many dairy.
men say that if they want to dry off a
COW, they feed her on dry timothy hay.
Contrary to the effects of other grasses,
timothy is we'll known to be exhaustive of
fertility; it also has q compacting dead
ening effect upon land. In many parts
of the Red River Valley timothy makes
an excellent growth and turns off a good
yield for year or two, when it seems to
get "hide bound" turns yellow, ara
makes very spindling, light growth.
This can be obyiated by tearing up and
loosening the ground thoroughly with a
spring tooth harrow, and heavily manur.
ing at the same time. If intended for
hay, about eight quarts per acre should
be sown, which should be done by mix
ing the seed with the wheat in the grain
drill at seeding time in the spring. The
stubbles of the wheat, if very thick, af-
ter cutting, will hold the snow on it dur
ing winter and protect it from drying
winds. Timothy further south is often
sown in the fall, but it is probable that
the autumns are too dry in the prairie
region to make that plan success. 1t is
very good practice to sow timothy with
blue grass and white clover, as it will
come on first and furnish pasture while
they are getting start. They weight Of
timothy seed is 45 pounds per bushel
Timothy has been sown with fair de-
gree of success directly upon the prairie
grass, but if the season should be hot
and dry, it does not always 'catch.'
Spring seeding with wheat, on lane
thoroughly subdued by cultivation, is best
Sown with oats or barley it does not dc

posed to the hot sun after the grain crop

GREAT is ALASKA.
Governor Swineford, the Enthuisas-
tic Executive of Alaska, Makes
His Annual Report.
Interesting Facts Relating To Our
Great Northwest, Are Set
Forth.

A. 7. Swineford, Governor of Alaska, in
his annual report, says that the white
population is principally confined to the
southeastern section, embracing the So
called ''Thirty mile strip" of main land
geograp hically division, which includes
less than one-twentieth of the whole terri
tory. The population of the territory is
estimated as follows: Whites, 5000; creo-
les practically white), 1900; Aleuts,
2,300 natives partially educated and
civilizedl, $500. Total civilized popula-
ton, 12,600; uncivilized ealives, 26,S00.
Total population, 9,400.
All the Creoles and Aleuts car read and
write either in the Russian or their own
language, while not few of the natives
other than Aeuts are to all intent civili-
zed. The Governor says that 100000
600 is conservative estimate of the
taxable property in the territory, exclu-
sive of the Alaska Commercial Company's
establishments on the seal islands.
The increase, he says, will be rapid as
soon us congress, by the necessary iegis
lation, gives encouragement TO the settle
ment of public lands. The report says
that very little has been accomplished or
indeed attempted in the way of agricul-
tural development. This, Notwithstanding
there is very considerable acreage of
tillable land in Southeastern Alaska, with
soil that produces most luxurious
vegetation, the fact being that no one
comes into the territory with the belief
that either the soil or the climate is
suited to agriculture or horticultural pur-
suits, but the few experiments which
have been made leave no room for doubt
that all the cereals, except corn, can be
grown to perfection in many sections.
Nothing has yet been done in the way of
stock raising, although the Winters of
Southeastern Alaska are much milder
than those of Montana, Wyoming and
Dakota and the seasons altogether quite
well adapted to this industry.

that may become so numerous, even
though the eye can not detect their pres
eDce, that they faint the water to that
extent that the alchemy of the COW can
not destroy them, and so they find their
way into the milk, making it ropy and
bitter. Again, there are numerous weeds
that a. certain stage of their growth or
development present tempting bite to
the cows, and IN some way the acid of
their juices gets into the milk and in
iures it. The remedy is plain enough
give the cows only pure, clean water to
drink, and fence them away from stag
nant pools and swampy parts of the pas
ture. When bitter milk is the fault 90
the cows, it is generally attributed to
their being too long in milk, though
sometimes the reverse, that Is, too fresh,
the colnstrum still remaining in it.
Some COWS may retain this much longer
than others, and be q cause of mischief,
without arousing the suspicious of their
owners. We never took much stock in
the "feyerish condition" theory. When
COW is feverish she is sick and refuses
to give milk, while her breath is offensive
and any man is fcv. who would use the
milk from such COW. When bitter milk
is the fault of the dairy maid it simply
means that, she is sloveny in her habits
and does not keep the cans clean. Water
that is red hot when applied-and this
means to the last as we'll as the first cans
washed-will remove ali grease, whether
soap is used or not. Keep the pot of
water on the stove and the fire going un-
til the last article is clean, if you want to
do conscientious and thorough job. If
these remarks lead to the discovery of
the source of bitter milk in one single
dairy, then we have not lived ard writ in
vain.

The Worlds Greatest Coffee Drinkers.
Good Cheer

The Hollanders are the greatest coff ee
drinkers in the world, their annual con
sumption being about 1S pounds per
head of the whole population. Amster-
dam has long been one of the great cof-
fee marts of the world, and, being ad-
mit.ed free of duty, coffee is very cheap.
Next come Belgium and Denmark, in
which the consumption per capita is about
half of that of Holland. Next come the
United States, in which the consumption
per capita in 1880 was eight and eight
tenths pounds. The present consum p
ton of coffee in the United States may
be stated at little over one pound per
week for each family in the nation. In the
use of tea and coffee the people OF Eng
land and the United States present a
most remarkable contrast. The annual
consumption of the people of England is
Just about pound of coffee per head, or
about one eighth of that of the people of
the United States. Comparing the con-
sumption of tea with that of coffee, il
will be found that, while the people of the
United States use about five pounds of
coffee to one of tea, the people of Eng
land use five pounds of tea to one OF
coffee. There are fashions in coffee, as
in almost everything. At Alden and
Alexandria the Mocha coffee is carefully
picked over and assorted, in ompliance
with the singular fashion in trade which
creates a demand in Europe for the lar
ger beans, while the United States will
have none but the smaller ones. In point
of fact, the larger beans are the best, be-
ing fully developed, more perfect in ap'
pearance and flavor.

WHO WROTE sHAKEsPEAREY
How the Element of 'Doubtn Leads to Grand
Achievements.


The world is agitated again over the
question of who was the author of Shak es
peare's plays.
The world is full of doubling Thomases
The man who has been successful in
exciting the present momentary interest
in the subject is, like most successful az
itators, an Irishman. He claims to have
discovered cipher running through the
Shakespearian plays which proves them
to have been written by Lord Bacon. II
is also claimed that there is cipher in
the epitaph on the moss grown tombstone
wsich, properly interpreted, leads to the
same conclusion.
This age shows a decided inclination IL
pry into mysteries.
1t can make no difference TO Shakes
peare now whether the world believes he
wrote the Ilays that bear his name OF
not.
The plays are immortal.
lgnatius Donnelly cannot rob us OF
these grand WORKS, even though he should
s9cceed in robbing Shakespeare of his
glory,

river, and still on until every state in the
Union had seen and studied 1.-THE In

their war paint, plumed and feathered
and fierce visaged, armed TO the teeth,
savages flom scalp-lock to moccasin,
Behind them, on foot, a band of young
braves that will sweep these old warriors
and savages out of existence forever. In
the neat uniforms of their schools, trim
and tidy as any boys in any grammar
school in the land, marching steadily as
soldiers, with the free, easy stride born
of the prairies, each dark skinned brave
armed with slate, marched these dusky
warriors from Carlisle and Hampton and
Lincoln institute. 1t was grand, it was
inspiring, it was sublime, it was Chris

singing with all their Indian hearts in
their Indian voices, "Hail Columbia,
Happy Land" Anything but "happy

unlbus to the day of the cowboys, seen
for them and their fathers. They sang
as the prophets sing. After them came
the Indian boys at work at heir trades,
mechanics, farmers, teachers; girls at
homework, bright, neat, happy-looking
girls; cooking, sewing, knitting, reading;
trained hospital nurses in a hospital
ward; useful, happy girls as your own

HALLOWEEN is an ancient and houored
festival that falls on Oct. 81. 1t has al
ways been popular ia Great Britain, par
ticularly in the north country out of
which have come so many quaint and
curious customs. The Scots and their
descendants in America take especially
kindly TO the old festivals and their pro-
per observance, and this one of Hallow-
cen, the vigil of Hallowmas, or All
Saints Day, is remembered and is cele-
brated by them every where in becom
ing manner. The beliefs and practices
of the young men and maiaens, described
10y Robbie Burns in his poem on Hallow-
sen, have passed away, and have been re-
placed by the less romantic but quite az
enjoyable festivities of the Preside, such
as ducking for apples in tubs of water,
cracking jokes and nuts about the hearth,
making mirth and candy, and playing
the inpumerable Innocent games that form
so much of the recreation of a sim pie
people. Many of these observances
translated from the hills and giens,
